Hey ladies i feel your pain, my fs wanted me n my hubby to start ivf months ago but we cant afford it atm.im saving everything and it still doesnt seem to be enough :(.hopefully will scrap enough money together to start ivf in feb, fingers crossed.i wish me n hubby werent both in low paying jobs then we would save alot faster.
Hi girls, I've been MIA I got some news on Thursday and still getting my head around it.
The Repromed nurses decided to do some bloods on me because I still don't have AF and they found a very low amount of pregnancy hormone in my blood.
Beta of 24.
I've been pretty scared the last few days but my beta has risen to 800+ since.
I have been waiting to get this FET done for the last six weeks and had no idea that I could even fall pg naturally, it still doesn't seem real.
The only symptoms I have is strong AF cramping, other than that I feel nothing, just shocked.
I had a Lipidol Tubal Flush on day 7 of my cycle to help assist embryo implantation and this must have done something for things to happen naturally.
I feel so guilty joining in here this month and for this to happen because there are so many of you that are doing it so hard.
Honestly my worst fear was falling pg naturally because I'm not on the medication for the NKcells, but it's too late to take them so only time will tell if my pregnancy will stick.
These stories only happen to 'other people' I never dreamed that this could happen to me.
Anyway I wanted to let you girls know what's happening, I'm sorry if this makes anyone feel down, I never expected things to turn out like this and I want to thank you all for the welcome and support you have given to me.
we think of you too.... :hug::
the pill made me very emotional and I hated being on it for the whole fact that it was counter-intuitive.....
So headaches - could be...! Stress related as well perhaps??? This must be stressful for you as well.
Pop in as you feel you can, watching people come and go in here is hard - even though its exciting as well.
Oh murrycod!!! That's great!!!! Don't feel guilty at all! It's happened in here before, I'm crossing everything for you!!
xox
Thanks Myturn xxxx
Hi Ladies,
Vic261 - I have my FX for you!
Nirenitrom - Good luck for Saturday.
Murraycod - I'm so happy to hear some good news from someone in here! I hope it all works out for you :D
Jo_white83 - I hope the injections are as easy as you say they are - I'm like you - I absolutely hate needles. After 6 months of zoladex I got a bit better and didn't feel sick for the whole week leading up to the injection now it's just at the time they're coming up. I'm due to start Gonal F in a couple of weeks so I'm trying not to worry too much just yet.
I haven't been posting much in here but have been reading everyday. Not much to report - still on synarel without too many side effects. Just headaches mainly but also been a bit emotional. Every few days I have a really flat day and fight back tears all day for absolutely no reason at all. Due for BT 5/11/12 so in a way I feel like this cycle is going forever but it's really not when I think I have spent 9 months of this year waiting for my endo operation and TTC for the last 3 years so really to have this cycle finished next month it's actually not long at all. I'm feeling really positive about it and desperately hope to get a BFP but then I remind myself all you ladies were probably just as positive as I am on your first cycles so I need to stay realistic. In saying that I guess there's nothing wrong with having a positive mind....
OMG, murraycod!!! Does that mean I can put someone in the BFP list for October?!?!?!?!? Please, please, please?!?!?!?!?!

:hide:
Congratulations MurrayCod!!!! :leap:
Ps. This is a guilt free thread :p No guilt allowed!
Oh my god murraycod, that is the best news EVER !!! I hope and pray it all goes well. Enjoy every moment xxx
Murrycod - Congratulations babe. Like I said in my PM to you I thought you might be one of those ladies who had a baby by IVF then when the pressure was off you'd get a natural, hehe you proved me right. I am sending you truck loads of :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesboy:
Sneaks in yay Murraycod lots of sticky vibes x sneaks out.
Congrats Murraycod! :dance: Wishing you a very happy and healthy pg. So happy for you xxx
Murraycod - I totally agree with N2l there is no guilt in here, we are all happy for everyone who falls pregnant whether naturally or through other ways. I can imagine your surprise, I hope it sticks and you have a happy healthy 9mths xo enjoy.
I am still waiting for af - I just want it to hurry up if it's coming so I can start the next cycle. I feel like I am responsible for all our money having to go to medical bills, medication, personal training and nutritionists....all to try and have a baby. Started crying last night and decided to give up pt to save us the $400 a mth but dh said I need it and to keep going cause I have done so well with weight loss.....don't know what to do anymore, it's all to much!!!
Speaking of money, I just rang the chemist and my extra drugs for this cycle (ie. those not covered by stim cost) will cost over $2000 out of pocket. Damn.
Murraycod - yay for the natural BFP! So happy for you... At least someone got a positive this month... It was looking a bit empty on the daily list! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy!
Kerbear - big hugs for you! You have done extremely well with losing weight, good on you and keep up the good work! Sounds like you've got a sweet other half - so important on this hard TTC path. Fingers crossed soon the medical bills will only be baby related!!!
Nothing2lose - wow 2000 dollars is a lot of money for medication, can you try different chemists to get the best price?? (I find that some chemists are way more expensive than others...)
AFM just plottering along, day 5 today, waiting for next blood test on Monday, then probably a scan soon after that?! Just wondering if the FET will be 5 days after ovulation with the blastocyst stage embryo?? My DF might have to go away for work and am hoping he'll be back again in time for FET, he wouldn't want to miss it himself. Did acupuncture today, found a chance to relax, which is hard outside acupuncture with all the stuff still to be done for the wedding. I'm hoping to get most of it done before the FET so I can rest and relax afterwards. Hope everyone else is well!
Hi girls
Congrats murraycod! That's fantastic news. Fx for healthy pregnancy.
I had my appointment with fs today & am very happy they have decided that I can do a natural fet cycle. Apparently my lining with 0.1mm smaller than it should be so I will be monitored and if its low again i will have to take progynova but I won't have to take any progesterone as my levels were fine during tracking. So happy i don't have to have progesterone - I couldn't deal with the night sweats again. The fs clinic has said they can do blood test to track me to see where in my cycle i am at the moment too so i can plan the next one. They still have no reason for me as to why I bled 5 days post transfer last time - they are still adamant it wasn't my period?? Anyway hopefully going naturally I will be fine.
Has anyone here had success with natural fet cycle. Also what is progynova like?
Me4ever - if your frozen embryos are 5 day old embryos they will be transferred 5 days after ovulation. I asked my fs that question today. Hope your husband will be around for it.
Thanks Beau! Fingers crossed you can start soon!
Beau - The Progynova is easy. 3 tablets a day.
Congratulations murraycod :)
We're enjoying a lovely holiday in QLD :)
Seeing the FS when we get back- start stim cycle in November :) :)

Got Their BFP in October :hooray:
Murraycod - Surprise natural BFP!!!
I just want it noted for the record that I really hate the pill. My head hurts, I am teary, nauseous and tense. I'm just glad I'm not not trying to get pregnant iykwim!
Blah :(
Hi girls
Quick question. What should eostrogen level be right before O ???
Love Curtysgirl xoxo
It depends on how many follicles you have Curtsygirl. A general rule of thumb is a level of 200 per mature follie.
Hmmmm well my BT this morning showed my eostrogen at 400... Thats all the clinic told me ?? Im day 11 .. Wouldnt have a clue how many fol's i have.... They want to do more bloods saturday morn.
I think that number is for pg/ml, whereas we usually use pmol/l in Australia (conversion factor is 3.671)? My FS wants to see between 600-1400 pmol/l per mature follicle. However, my E2 level just before O last cycle (natural cycle) was 2000, which may have indicated more than 1 follicle (but he didn't do a scan to check).:
N2L, sorry to hear the pill is giving you nasty s/e. :(
Better late than never but sneaking in to say CONGRATULATIONS to Murraycod!!
Babydust to everyone else, hope some more bfps come from murraycod's good luck :pink-babydust:
Huge congrats to Murraycod! Well done hun :)
I'm sorry the down reg. cycle is making you feel miserable n2l :hug:
Hello to everyone in here! I hope there will be lots and lots of BFPs in here soon :crossfingers:
i second saffy - wishing murraycod a belated congrats! :confetti:
Thank you everyone for all of your lovely messages XOXOX
I apreciate the support.
Juniper you can put me on the October list, things are still so early but im hoping for the best xx
Yay congratulations Murraycod :leap:
sorry that I never post, but don't have anything new to post and as I've never been through as much as the rest of you have (tests, procedures etc) I don't have any helpful advice for anyone :(
AFM - still waiting, I got my letter from the hospital but now I have to wait until they tell me a date for my lap. Also AF is 10 days late, but hpt says negative, argh so annoying!
Hope everyone is well :bluedust: to all
congrats murraycod on your "surprise"!!! hope everything goes well and you are holding your littlie in about 9 months time
good luck nire for your transfer on Sat. Great collection # and fert rate! May you get your BFP too!
Hi to everyone else, hope you aren't travelling too badly and can look forward to a great weekend! :D:D
AFM - seems like life hasn't quite finished kicking me while I am down. After my d&c on Monday, my gran died (peacefully) Tues morning. Was 3 weeks out from celebrating her 90th b'day so she had at least lived a great life but still a shock as well. Funeral next Monday. None of the family know about the m/c, but definitely not the time to telling them either. FX that is the end to all the bad news, not sure if I could take much more at the moment. At least everything went well with the d&c and have follow up with the FS in 6 weeks to plot where we go to from here. Anyone able to give me an idea of how long I will continue to bleed for?
I'm so sorry to hear that your gran passed away Joe :hug: I had light bleeding for around a week or a week and a half from memory after my d&c in January. Take care of yourself sweetie, thinking of you xoxoxo
I'm losing the plot, my cycle was in January, my d&c was in March :shakehead:
sorry about your gran, joe. : (
after my d&c, i bleed lightly for just under a week. af returned around 6 weeks after. take care. xx
So sorry jo..... :hug:
i bled on and off a bit for about two weeks - was a pain because youre not supposed to wear tampons and not a big fan of pads tbh.... AF arrived 6 weeks and 3 days after D&C.... I think vic says hers arrived 5 weeks 2 days after D&C... The grief was pretty raw for the first week, the 2nd week was better, but I probably didn't feel right emotionally for a month.... Then I was just eager for AF to arrive so it could be the end of a chapter....
Be kind to yourself - you are doubly grieving at the moment so things will be pretty tough....:grouphug:
Yay, yay, yay! Love it! Was getting so depressed about that empty list!:
Treenie, sorry to hear you're still waiting for your lap. I hope they give you a date very soon and that you don't have much longer to wait.
Joe, I'm so terribly sorry to hear you lost your gran the day after your d&c. As if you weren't dealing with enough grief. :( We lost DH's dad suddenly 4 months after my d&c and that was hard enough. As for your recovery questions, I bled for 17 days. I had my d&c on a Monday, had light bleeding for almost a week and then suddenly had heavy bleeding on Sunday night. It tapered off again after a couple of days and then did the same thing again the following Sunday. It tapered off more quickly that time and stopped mid-week. AF showed up 5 weeks after the d&c. I found the physical recovery very easy, but the emotional recovery has been long and hard. I still struggle some days, even though it has been almost 10 months.
I bled for 10 days and af arrived 5wks 3 days after my d&c. So very sorry about your gran.
hi girls, i hope you don't mind me popping in, i have a few questions to ask.....
for those of you on coq10 did you start slowly and increase the dose over time ? i have started taking it but have been feeling unwell and wondered if it might be from that ?
also has anyone been on or heard anything about the drug Luveris ? im having that added to my cycle along with the gonal f to give me some LH to try and get some more mature eggs (last cycle i had 25+ follicles and only 6 eggs)
thanks
